I don't know a way that you can do this from Makemaker.
Have you tried creating the dependency in the Makefile itself? You
insert a bit of code into the Makefile through MY::postamble, and you
make it run the same thing that processes the PL_FILES.
That's certainly ugly. When you get down to this level of detail, it's
sometimes easier to use Module::Build unless you have some other
contraint that forces you to use MakeMaker.
